Hey Sulu, if it was a Muslim organization, they’d be trying to behead you.

Another Regressive Rat misses the root cause.

Hobby Lobby offers 16 of the 20 birth control methods on the market.

They have have 20 forms of birth control on the market to satisfy the divergent and varied needs of free individuals. Every person is unique, and only that person understands and determines which product is best for there personal situation.

The Government wants to impose, by force, a standard solution onto a free people.

The vast majority will have a problem with the Government “solution”.
Government is not the solution, Government is the Problem

one wonders whether the case would have come out differently if a Muslim-run chain business attempted to impose Sharia law on its employees...

Of course, because Sharia dissenters are quickly silenced when their head is separated from their body at the neck

Nobody should be forced to pay for an abortion. The fascists think the state has ultimate power as was shown in Star Trek.

RE:”Out actor George Takei has criticized a Supreme Court decision declaring that some for-profit companies may block their employees’ access to certain birth control methods.”

This shows the ludicrousness of liberals.

A self-declared homo complaining about not getting free abortion pills from Hobby Lobby, where he doesn't work.
You cant get other men knocked up George(except maybe with HIV) , nature doesn't work that way. .

“In this case, the owners happen to be deeply Christian; one wonders whether the case would have come out differently if a Muslim-run chain business attempted to impose Sharia law on its employees,” Takei said in a blog post.

No one is trying to impose Christianity on their employees - the business, which provides health care as part of their employee's compensation, successfully made the case that the ACA's mandates did not override the protections in the RFRA (signed by Clinton, by the way) that require to government to show both that they have a compelling public interest and that they're using the least possible infringing method of attaining that interest.

If a Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, American Indian, etc., owner wanted to object to any of the ACA's provisions on religious grounds, the situation would be exactly the same, and the ruling enforces that.

I don’t buy cigarettes for my adult daughter because I disapprove of smoking, but I give her money, I shop at some stores that sell cigarettes, and who knows what’s in the mutual funds at my 401k - quite possibly some tobacco firms. Does that make me a hypocrite?

Who gives a fiddly duck what queers think about birth control, it’s not like they will ever need any form of it, especially not abortion. The only reason mr. oh my, opens his mouth is to denigrate Christianity, oh and to ................

I’d say post that on Takei’s Facebook page, but it’d never be seen.
